The Mascot Grand National is an annual race between mascots of various other sports teams as well as corporate mascots. It has been contested since 1999 and since 2012 has been held at Kempton Park Racecourse. Previously it was held at Huntingdon racecourse. Up to 100 mascots in full-body costumes take part.〔.〕 The short race is along the final furlong of the course, with low hurdles (approximately 40cm high). The mascots' entry fees are donated to charity.〔See ''Terms & Conditions'' at ()〕 In 2010, many mascots, especially those from professional football clubs, boycotted the race over the way it was organised and the fact that mascots from any field could enter even if they were not 'day in-day out' performers. ==List of winners== *1999: Beau Brummie Bulldog — Birmingham City F.C.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=The Mascot Grand National )〕 *2000: Harry the Hornet — Watford F.C.〔 *2001: Dazzler the Lion — Rushden & Diamonds F.C.〔 *2002: Chaddy the Owl — Oldham Athletic A.F.C.〔 *2003: Chaddy the Owl — Oldham Athletic A.F.C.〔 *2004: Graham the Gorilla — Finedon Volta F.C.〔 *2005: Scoop Six Squirrel — ''The Sun'' newspaper〔 *2006: Mickey the Monkey — ''Kick 4 Life''〔 *2007: Wacky Macky Bear — Saffron Walden Town F.C.〔 *2008: Wacky Macky Bear — Saffron Walden Town F.C.〔 *2009: Stag — Huntingdon Rugby Club〔 *2010: Mr Bumble — Barnet F.C.〔 *2011: ''not held'' *2012: Mr Bumble — Barnet F.C. *2013: Barry Barratt — Barratt Homes safety mascot *2014: ''not held'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mascot Grand National」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
